Psychiatrical
- Suggestibility
The electromyographic features were suggestive of anterior horn disease not only in the affected limb but also, in some cases, in clinically uninvolved limb. Cervical or lumbar MRI was normal. [doaj.org]
While some physicians contend that mild sensory loss may be associated with this disease, many experts suggest that such symptoms actually indicate a cause other than MMA. MMA occurs in males between the ages of 15 and 25. [ninds.nih.gov]

Treatment consists of muscle strengthening exercises and training in hand coordination Read More Read Less Prognosis Prognosis The symptoms of MMA usually progress slowly for one to two years before reaching a plateau, and then remain stable for many [ninds.nih.gov]
